Hello,
I came across Eurekster/Google community/collaborative search engines,
and I thought maybe this would be a good idea for the FRIAM group.
The Eurekster FAQ says in a nutshell what it's about:
"Sometimes, looking for specific information has that needle in a
haystack feeling. Not only can you get 6,000+ results from a simple
query, the most relevant data for you can be buried way down the list.
Swickis let you slice and dice and customize your search engine query so
that you can specify the most relevant sources, then get further
refinement of the results once like-minded users start engaging with the
results. Every click refines the swicki's search strings, creating a
responsive, dynamic result that's both customized and highly relevant."
Eurekster (uses Yahoo Search):

customized to ABM, ALife etc.
